Mental health needs to become a priority in our country. There's more stigma for psychiatry than for the mentally ill I am sure. Are people afraid it could be them? People don't have to take meds. Many just need to talk to somebody when they feel conflicted inside. We need to intervene before things escalate. The inpatient experience is inadequate. There is no one to talk to. All that is done is meds. Yet the stay is from 2-3 days and it takes weeks to tell if the meds are working. So it is all a waste of time. Mental health treatments needs to be affordable for all. Society is broken because of all the inner conflict in individuals. I'm not talking about mental illness! We all have mental health! We are all affected. Divorce, death, loss of jobs, financial stressors, domestic violence,etc
